The world's largest single LED manufacturing base built in South Korea

LG Innotek in Korea Paju, LED production base installed more than 10000 LED lights. Headquartered in Korea LG Co., is dedicated to the display and lighting LED vertical integration manufacturers, recently announced that it has built the world's largest single LED in Paju manufacturing base, the manufacturing base covers from LED to LED epitaxial wafer manufacturing module of LED production in all aspects.

In related news, also reported that LED lighting was installed in Seoul Korea LG electronics LG headquarters in Petronas Twin Towers, the two buildings lighting system design is expected to save 1717 megawatts of power when the year. However, prior to the deadline, no further details of the project were reported.

Production facilities at slope state

LG Innotek comprehensive base in Paju was started in July 2010 put into use, the base including production facilities, administration building and related infrastructure, a total area of about 182 thousand square meters, equivalent to 26 football pitches. In its first year of use, the entire LED production base has saved a total of 173 thousand kilowatts of electricity, roughly equivalent to the use of fluorescent lamps and other traditional lighting electricity consumption by 20%.

The company estimates that producing 173 thousand kilowatts of energy in accordance with the need to release 317 tons of carbon dioxide, and a pine tree in a year can be calculated to absorb 5 kilograms of carbon dioxide, the production base in the first year of the energy saving can be planted 63000 pine trees in the area and the effect of comparable.

The installation of LED slope used by a variety of high efficiency LED lighting module LG Innotek development, ReflectA lighting module ModulA and indirect reflective lighting module including flat panel. The LED production base of target output is to produce 1 billion 800 million LED units, the third layer is a comprehensive production workshop building area of 58 thousand square meters, with 6 inch wafer production line, LED chip production line and production line for the LED module LCD TV backlight unit and LED module for lighting production line. The company expects to provide 2000 jobs in its first year, with a total of about 4000 jobs.

A LG Innotek official said, "LED lighting is the best available lighting source, because it is similar to the solar lighting, but does not emit ultraviolet light, and can be used for a long time. In addition, it can also change the color of the lighting environment according to the different ", he added," high price, this is considered to be the biggest obstacle to LED lighting application, along with the development of core technology and production capacity expansion is quickly resolved".
